6 Exceptionally Badass Movie Dragons

Dragons are awesome. I am sure there are countless other ways I could have opened this article, but come on, why dance around a subject when we can just jump right to the heart of it? At some point, someone saw a lizard and thought to themselves: if that thing was huge and could breathe fire, it would be fucking terrifying. And thus, dragons were born.

The Hungarian Horntail – Harry Potter

The Harry Potter world is a world full of wonder (and many types of dragons). But in keeping with the theme of the list, which seems to be the joining of the words “badass” and “dragons,” the two merge perfectly when Harry Potter is forced to fight the Hungarian Horntail during the Triwizard tournament in The Goblet of Fire.

This dragon pretty much embodies anything about dragons that make them scary to us, and cranks it up to ten. From the many spikes adorning its body to the double flame throwers under the tongue, it is just dragon design done perfectly. And, the tension in the scene only builds more and more when you realize this dragon is pretty intent on killing a teenage boy in front of a school full of spectators.

That’s about as badass as it gets, isn’t it?
